A thread in alt.html[1] began due to the perceived inability of Opera to
parse a list-style rule of the form:
list-style: <type> none;
where <type> is a valid value other than none. In such an instance, it
appears that Opera treats this rule as erroneous and ignores it entirely.
During a subsequent discussion on opera.page-display[2], it was asserted
that such a declaration is ambiguous and its results are undefined. Whilst
I feel that was demonstrated to be untrue, a request was made for this
issue to be clarified.
So, for the rule:
list-style: <type> <position> none;
MUST a user agent be able to apply:
list-style-type: <type>;
list-style-position: <position>;
list-style-image: none;
for any combination of valid values?
Many thanks,
Mike
